LAY THEM AT THE ALTAR
Text: Genesis 22:1-3
By: Adeaga O. Favour
What can be too demanding for God to ask from you? It is so easy to talk about the 'dangerous' act of obedience that Abraham did but challenging to do what he did. The truth is to get the blessing anyone has, one must be willing to do what the person did.
There is a always a requirement from God to qualify for the blessing He has for us. Before we can qualify to receive from Him, we must be willing to release what is in our hands. Isaac needed to go for the blessings of Gen 22:17-18 to be established.
What needs to leave your hands to God's? What position, certificate, relationship, connection, business and career, and so on needs to leave your hands to get what God has for you? Anything that can come between you and God can come between you and your blessing.
REFLECTION FOR TODAY:
When God places a demand, it's not as though He needed it but because He wants to bless us.
PRAY:
Father, I consecrate all I have to You in Jesus' nname
